4.3.3 Editor panes

The Common LispWorks Editor, as described in the
Common LispWorks User Guide
and the
LispWorks Editor User Guide
, uses
editor-pane
.

Figure 4.5 An editor pane

Note: when you supply the
:buffer-name
initarg and/or the
:text
initarg with positive length, then the
editor-pane
initially displays a new buffer containing that text and/or with the specified buffer name. If you do not supply one of those arguments, then the
editor-pane
displays some existing editor buffer chosen at random. See the
LispWorks CAPI Reference Manual
for details.

The cursor in an
editor-pane
blinks on and off under the control of the
editor-pane-blink-rate mechanism.
